Walk Through the Tabernacle - Eastern Gate
Over the next several days I'd like to walk you through the tabernacle to show you the significance of temple worship and how it directly correlates to our worship of Jesus Christ.
So take yourself back to the time of Moses. In the middle of the wilderness we find several million Israelites encamped in the desert. You can't miss the pillar of fire coming from the center of the camp. And it is not a bonfire....it's the presence of God himself.
The pillar of fire is coming from the tentlike structure in the very center of the Tabernacle.
Built to exact specifications, in the midst of the camp we find this tabernacle structure.
We approach the tabernacle from outside and notice there is only one entrance to this house of worship. It's on the east side. It appears that in God's master plan for worship he wanted us to know that there is only one way to access Him.
As New Covenant Christians, it reminds us of the narrow gateway to heaven... Jesus Christ. (Mat 7:14) We thank Him for that narrow gate….access to God. We thank him that there is only mediator between God and men....the man Jesus Christ.
